Weird & Wonderful

Every now and then we come across a rather odd yet delightful online presence here at the 'Nest ... the kind of thing that makes random surfing worthwhile.

This definitely qualifies as one of those.

Based in the 'Weird Ranch' in Potters Bar, Weird & Wonderful deals in prop hire to the film and television industry.

Try slapping a wheel-clamp on this.

When you need fantasy creatures or starships, this bunch supplies it to set designers, prop masters and production buyers.

There's some mighty cool stuff on this site, including their Weird Cars subsidiary, which can rent out some of the most unusual vehicles available in the UK, ranging from an AC Cobra, through the Adam West Batmobile to an old Zonda.

Grenade launcher not included.

If you need publicity items for your next SFF con, the Weird and Wonderful crew also work in the promotional field, having kitted out displays for movies like the Alien & Star Wars trilogy, Judge Dredd and Braveheart.

Given this is the case, their extensive online catalogue is a joy to peruse ... with enough hardware and gizmos to outfit an entire division of Colonial Marines.

Like it says on the can, it's weird. It's wonderful. Surf on over today at ...
